Ruth 1
1 And it came to pass, in the days when the Judges administered justice, that there was a famine in the land, —and so a certain man went his way, out of Bethlehem-judah to sojourn in the country of Moab, he, and his wife, and his two sons.
A u ono vrijeme kad suðahu sudije bi glad u zemlji; i jedan èovjek iz Vitlejema Judina otide da živi kao došljak u zemlji Moavskoj sa ženom svojom i sa dva sina svoja.
2 And, the name of the man, was Elimelech, and, the name of his wife, Naomi, and, the name of his two sons, Mahlon and Chilion—Ephrathites out of Bethlehem-judah, —so they came into the country of Moab, and remained there.
A ime tomu èovjeku bješe Elimeleh, a ženi mu ime Nojemina, a imena dvojice sinova njegovijeh Malon i Heleon; i bijahu Efraæani, iz Vitlejema Judina; i doðoše u zemlju Moavsku i nastaniše se ondje.
3 And Elimelech, husband of Naomi, died, —and she was left, she and her two sons.
Potom umrije Elimeleh muž Nojeminin i ona osta sa dva sina svoja.
4 And they took them wives, of the women of Moab, the name of the one, was Orpah, and, the name of the other, Ruth, —and they dwelt there, about ten years.
Oni se oženiše Moavkama: jednoj bješe ime Orfa a drugoj Ruta; i ondje stajahu do deset godina.
5 And, they also, both, died, Mahlon and Chilion, —so the woman was bereft of her two sons, and of her husband.
Potom umriješe obojica, Malon i Heleon; i žena osta bez dva sina svoja i bez muža svojega.
6 Then she arose, she and her daughters-in-law, and returned out of the country of Moab, —for she had heard, in the country of Moab, how that Yahweh had visited his people, in giving unto them, bread.
Tada se ona podiže sa snahama svojima da se vrati iz zemlje Moavske, jer èu u zemlji Moavskoj da je Gospod pohodio narod svoj davši im hljeba.
7 So she went forth out of the dwelling-place where she had remained, and her two daughters-in-law with her, —and they went on the way, to return unto the land of Judah.
I izide iz mjesta gdje bijaše, i obje snahe njezine s njom; poðoše putem da se vrate u zemlju Judinu.
8 Then said Naomi to her two daughters-in-law: Go return, each one to the house of her mother, —Yahweh deal with you in lovingkindness, as ye have dealt with the dead, and with me.
Tada reèe Nojemina objema snahama svojima: idite, vratite se svaka u dom matere svoje; Gospod neka vam uèini milost kao što vi uèiniste umrlima i meni.
9 Yahweh grant you, that ye may find a place of rest, each one in the house of her husband, —And she kissed them, and they lifted up their voice, and wept.
Da vam da Gospod da naðete poèinak svaka u domu muža svojega. I poljubi ih; a one povikavši zaplakaše,
10 And they said to her, —With thee, will we return, unto thy people.
I rekoše joj: ne, nego æemo se s tobom vratiti u tvoj narod.
11 Then said Naomi—Go back, my daughters! wherefore should ye journey with me? Have I, yet, sons in my womb, that they should become your, husbands?
A Nojemina im reèe: idite natrag, kæeri moje; što biste išle sa mnom? zar æu još imati sinova u utrobi svojoj da vam budu muževi?
12 Go back, my daughters, go your way, for I am too old to have a husband, —If I should say, I have, hope, if I should, even to-night have a husband, and should, even bear sons,
Vratite se, kæeri moje, idite; jer sam ostarjela i nijesam za udaju. A i da kažem da se nadam i da se još noæas udam, i da rodim sinove,
13 would ye, therefore, tarry until they were grown? would ye, therefore, shut yourselves up from having husbands? Nay! my daughters, for it is far more bitter for me than for you, that forth hath gone against me, the hand of Yahweh.
Zar æete ih vi èekati dok odrastu? zar æete toga radi stajati neudate? Nemojte, kæeri moje; jer su moji jadi veæi od vaših, jer se ruka Gospodnja podigla na me.
14 And they lifted up their voice and wept, yet more. Then Orpah kissed her mother-in- law, but, Ruth, clave unto her.
Tada one podigavši glas svoj plakaše opet; i Orfa poljubi svekrvu svoju; a Ruta osta kod nje.
15 And she said—Lo! thy sister-in-law hath gone back, unto her people, and unto her gods, —go thou back, after thy sister-in-law.
A ona joj reèe: eto, jetrva se tvoja vratila narodu svojemu i k bogovima svojim; vrati se i ti za jetrvom svojom.
16 And Ruth said—Do not urge me to leave thee, to go back from following thee, —for, whither thou goest, I will go, and, where thou lodgest, I will lodge, thy people, shall be my people, and, thy God, my God;
Ali Ruta reèe: nemoj me nagovarati da te ostavim i od tebe otidem; jer kuda god ti ideš, idem i ja; i gdje se god ti nastaniš, nastaniæu se i ja; tvoj je narod moj narod, i tvoj je Bog moj Bog.
17 where thou diest, I will die, and, there, will I be buried: So, let Yahweh do to me, and, so, let him add, if, death itself, part me and thee.
Gdje ti umriješ, umrijeæu i ja, i ondje æu biti pogrebena. To neka mi uèini Gospod i to neka mi doda, smrt æe me samo rastaviti s tobom.
18 And, when she saw that, bravely determined, was she to go with her, she ceased entreating her.
A ona kad vidje da je tvrdo naumila iæi s njom, presta je odvraæati.
19 So, they two, went their way, until they entered Bethlehem. And it came to pass, when they entered Bethlehem, that all the city was moved concerning them, and the women said—Is this Naomi?
Tako idoše obje dok ne doðoše u Vitlejem; a kad doðoše u Vitlejem, sav grad uzavre njih radi, i govorahu: je li to Nojemina?
20 And she said unto them, Do not call me Naomi ["Sweet"], —call me Mara ["Bitter"], for the Almighty hath dealt very bitterly with me:
A ona im govoraše: ne zovite me više Nojemina, nego me zovite Mara, jer mi velike jade zadade svemoguæi.
21 I was full when I departed, but, empty, am I brought back of Yahweh, —wherefore should ye call me Naomi, when, Yahweh, hath given answer against me, and, the Almighty, hath crushed me?
Obilna sam otišla, a praznu me vrati Gospod. Zašto me zovete Nojemina, kad me Gospod obori i svemoguæi me ucvijeli.
22 So Naomi returned, and Ruth the Moabitess, her daughter-in-law, with her, who returned out of the country of Moab, —and, they, entered Bethlehem in the beginning of barley harvest.
Tako doðe natrag Nojemina i s njom Ruta Moavka, snaha njezina, vrativši se iz zemlje Moavske; a doðoše u Vitlejem o poèetku jeèmene žetve.
